WG3 is working on the creation of a network that enables fruitful collaborations between researchers and end-user communities. Therefore, WG3 shall work on guidance and training on provided services to public institutions and private companies as well as to increase the international visibility of services to attract new users and establish feedback mechanisms to evaluate the service value. In particular, the present Action will try to network countries from Northern Africa and the Middle East.
